Chapter 755
A minute later, Sylvia received a reply that read: “Yeah.”
It was a one-word reply, concise and brutal.
She tried to press for more information. “Why the sudden move? Did something happen?”
Odell ignored her.
She sent yet another message. “Where did you move to?”
She received a pop-up that informed her that the message could not be sent because she was not on
the recipient’s friend list and that she had to be on the friend list to send a message. Needless to say, it
was because Odell had blocked her.
She frowned sullenly.
She had been staying in the hospital for the past two days and had never done anything wrong, so why
did he block her out of nowhere?
An unbearable sadness rushed up to her head in an instant as she rubbed her eyes.
After that, she flagged a taxi by the road.
If Odell would not tell her, she would find it herself.
The taxi took off to her appointed destination. She first

went to the Carters’ residence which was very quiet there,
and she could tell there was nobody home.
Then, she went to the Carters’ place in the Old District .
However, before she even stepped out of the car, Ben, who was posted at the gate, stepped up to the
car and spoke to her through the car window, “Miss Sylvia, Master Carter has instructed us to tell you
that you’re not welcome here. Please leave.”
Sylvia quickly asked, “Did he relocate all of you here?”
Ben answered, “Yes.”
Sylvia tried to crane her neck to get an angle into the house.
Ben quickly shifted to the side , shielding her view with his body.
Left with no choice, Sylvia had to tell the driver to leave the place.
Immediately after turning around the corner, she had the driver drop her off at the junction. She
crouched down like a thief and slowly snuck her way back to the vicinity of the Carters’ house.
She knew that the kids were in the middle of their winter break and should be at home most of the time.
She did not need to see them. All she wanted was to just hear their voices.

Three bodyguards were posted by the gates, and all of them standing an equal distance from one
another. They were very vigilant and scanned the area from time to time as if their sole task was to look
out for any signs of Sylvia.
She did not want to risk drawing any closer than necessary and chose to hide behind a tree instead.
The day darkened without her realizing. Even the temperature seemed to drop by several degrees.
At last, two of the bodyguards went back into the house. They must have gone to get dinner.
Sylvia held her breath and leaned her back against the wall. She began to slowly creep closer toward
the house in that manner.
Just as she was drawing closer to the gate, she saw a very familiar-looking black car driving toward the
house. Her heart nearly jumped out of her chest. She quickly retreated several steps and found a
curved section of the wall to burrow herself into.
However, no matter how hard she tried to press herself into the curved section of the wall, her pregnant
belly still slightly bulged out. It was impossible to hide completely. It was too late. The car had come to
a stop, so she could not run and look for another hiding place. All she could do was hold her breath and
pray to all the gods that they would not find her hiding here.

Meanwhile , the bodyguard at the gate was opening the gate for Odell.
Odell stepped out of the car and strode toward the house. His long feet were like two thick trunks.
“Did that woman show up?” he asked as he strode. The bodyguard answered informatively, “She came
once this evening, and Ben told her to leave.”

Odell was just about to step into the house when he suddenly caught a glimpse of something out of the
corner of his eye. He stopped with a squint in his eyes and observed the belly bulging out of the section
of the wall and noted, “Is that so? Did she leave?”
As soon as he said that, the belly moved slightly as if it was trying to burrow itself deeper into the wall,
only to no avail. The curved section of the wall was nowhere near deep enough to offer her enough
room to hide. Heh. He could not help but chuckle at such a humorous scene.
The bodyguard was about to say something when he suddenly heard Odell’s chuckle. He asked with
intrigue,” Master Carter, what are you laughing at?” “Nothing, I just thought of a joke.”
This only confused the bodyguard further.
Before he could make sense of what was happening, Odell

suddenly added, “There’s this pig that thinks it’s the smartest pig in the world. In truth, it’s unbelievably
stupid and clumsy, but it’s too stupid to even realize it.”
The bodyguard was confused. What sort of joke was this supposed to be?
Why was it that this joke sounded more like a spiteful
statement, full of reproach?
